CITY BREAK IN
PRESTON
Discover something new every time you visit - whether you have a couple of hours to spare, or a weekend to explore, Preston offers an ideal urban getaway. Find a different event on the Flag Market and in the Harris every Saturday this summer, or pop into one of our other great venues across the city to experience Preston’s diverse events programme. From exhibitions to street theatre and live music, workshops and poetry nights there is always something new and unique to experience. Make sure you look up at Preston’s stunning architecture as you walk down Fishergate, the tree-lined high street. Pop into well-known shops, explore our range of quirky independents and visit the new Preston Markets, which offers fresh Lancashire produce, a variety of tasty lunch options and much more. And when you are ready to escape the hustle and bustle, why not explore the picturesque Winckley Square Garden or Avenham & Miller Parks - both offering an urban oasis right in the city centre - perfect for a stroll in the late afternoon sun. Whatever you choose to do, don’t forget to come back for Lancashire Encounter in September – a festival of light, sound, arts and culture in the heart of the city.
